Reddit mentions of Shiseido Fitit Perfect Whip Cleansing Foam 4.2 Ounce (Pack of 1)

I will love you forever if I receive this! It claims to give you fluffy skin. Can't beat that. I have actually had this on my list for almost 2 years but when I organized my lists it changed the date. It's on my Makeup and Skin Care list...you can choose anything you like though :)

You are very sweet to host this contest, welcome to our sub!

I'm pretty fond of Shiseido's Perfect Whip. It foams up really easily and doesn't leave that stripped feeling. Also relatively easy to find if you have an Asian grocery store somewhere in your area.

For the rice enzyme powder, it's actually super alkaline so I'm surprised your skin likes it, alkaline cleansers can exacerbate acne in some people cuz acidic pH cleansers create an environment acne bacteria can't survive. This cleanser is a foaming cleanser with a similarly alkaline pH (so I wouldn't ordinarily recommend it) so your skin might not notice the difference, and Shiseido is another Japanese brand! Hada Labo Gokujyun cleansing foam is a pH-correct (5.5) foaming cleanser that is very affordable and my cleanser of choice, if you wanted to try something more acidic. Again, Hada Labo is actually a japanese company so you're not supporting the appropriation of Japanese culture that Tatcha represents!

For the oil cleanser, it's pretty much a fragranced oil cleanser with rice bran oil and some others so you could try Kose's Softmo Deep Cleansing Oil, which in it's newest reformulation is mostly mineral and rice bran oil. Orange oil is also included which could be a bit fragrant and potentially bother you, so you might like the Speedy Cleansing Oil from Kose which is fragrant-oil free but is mostly mineral oil. Again, another Japanese company!

You could also just buy rice bran oil off amazon and double cleanse with it instead if you think your skin likes the rice bran oil in particular.

    This isn't really my core 4, it's just what I'm using right now... I have a backlog of products that I need to use. This also doesn't include my serums, sheet masks, exfoliants, etc either. I don't think I'm following the core 4 at all... LOL
    
    

I use Shiseido's Perfect Whip foaming cleanser (it's like slapping marshmallow whip on your face, the foam is so thick) and I use Queen Helene's Mint Julep Mask.

My favorite facial cleanser is the Shiseido Perfect Whip because I have very sensitive skin, and it leaves my skin feeling soft but not tight. As a general rule, after you are done washing your face, it should feel clean but not like your skin is stretched. If you don't want to special order your face wash, PHisioderm also sells a pretty nice drugstore foam.

I do not like them one bit, let me tell you why. When your hair is waterlogged, it cannot properly absorb the ingredients in the conditioner. That's why most bottles of conditioner say (reading a conditioner bottle, I know right?) to towel dry the hair, apply conditioner, then wait a few minutes before rinsing. Two in one shampoo conditioners might function as a shampoo, but don't think it's doing anything a conditioner would do for the hair.

I love Amazon's description of the ingredients: "This is Shiseido product, no risky material is not contained."

Found the actual ingredients on CosDNA and it looks reasonable. I've added it to my options!

Looking for some advice on when to use The Ordinary's Niacinamide + Zinc given my current routine. My skin is very oily and fairly acne-prone. At this point, I have less acne than I used to but still have a lot of PIH, which is why I'm planning to add the Niacinamide.

Current routine (strongly influenced by /r/AsianBeauty):

AM:

• Wash with Shiseido Perfect Whip
  
• Hatomugi Skin Conditioner
  
• Neutrogena Rapid Clear Stubborn Acne Daily Leave-on Mask (2.5% benzoyl peroxide) — if anyone has a recommendation on a better drugstore benzoyl peroxide product, I would love that!
  
• Moisturize with Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel
  
• Sunscreen: Biore Watery Essence
  
  PM:
  
  
• Remove makeup with Simple Micellar Water
  
• If not feeling too lazy, wash with Perfect Whip
  
• If I used Perfect Whip, use the Skin Conditioner. If just used Micellar Water, my skin generally doesn't need the moisture.
  
• TO Glycolic Acid
  
• Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel
  
  I know TO's website recommends using the Niacinamide twice a day but I'm not sure if it will interact poorly with the BP or the Glycolic Acid. When should I use it?
  
  Edit: forgot to write my sunscreen

Might be a little late but I had really bad acne for a kid and still would as an adult if I didn’t adopt a strict skincare routine and diet (it’s not that bad). Drinking water and changing your pillowcases frequently (every week to two weeks) also will help especially if you start putting all this product on your face. see note at the end*

For some, cutting out either, some, or all of the following helps alleviate acne: Dairy, Oil, Sugar, Gluten. But since you said you had no changes in diet I won’t go into that. Sorry in advance for formatting errors as I did all of this from mobile. Some products have instruction in Korean but I will tell you how to use them. Everything is used everyday/every night unless specified.

1. If I wear makeup, I use Jeju Deep Cleansing Balm. When used, it creates a layer of moisture but this can make rags feel congested, so I recommend wiping this with toss-able towels. It smells good and is good for getting the eyes especially. Just put a little on there towel/wipe and rub face until makeup is removed, then use another wipe to remove the excess balm.
   
2. I use African Black Soap after removing heavy full face make-up. For light/no make-up/mornings I use Senka Perfect Whip Foaming Cleanser. It takes about a month to come through Amazon, but if your local Asian market has a skincare store and most do, it can usually be found there. Works best if you have some kind of Spin Brush for face or a Whip Maker. It doesn’t work as well as it does with either of these products using just hand or rag. You can also use cheesecloth (examples on YouTube).
   
3. I use either of these masks if my skin feels dry or looks dull. Just rub on face and leave for 5-7 min then rinse off. This brand also has peeling masks as well that I use every other day in place of these. The peeling masks work similar to the nose strips people use to pull out nose blackheads and can be used to substitute them but can be used on whole face as well.
   
4. With my face cleaned and moisture somewhat restored, I soft exfoliate (I use everyday. If I wear makeup I use it same night and if I plan to wear makeup the next day, skip morning and use at night again. To use - rub soft side on face first to spread, then rub gently with textured side. Otherwise I use in morning. I hard exfoliate with this. I don’t scrub harder it’s just a sugar kind of scrub so it has the potential to cause inflammation if you’re rubbing to hard. I use every other day, this also works great on body and legs when shaving.
   
5. After exfoliating, I use Thayers Witch Hazel Toner. Remove with a cotton pad. I’ve found towelettes and pepper towels don’t work nearly as well as something cotton based. Toner helps to pull excess dirt from deep skin pores. On Sundays/Wednesday’s only I use Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Clay Mask. Instructions say specifically to use after Toner.
   
6. Now that face is cleaned and restored, I use a squeeze Vitamin C serum only at night. I got this from my local Asian market but if you ask they’ll know what you are talking about. I dab it ONLY onto any dark spots/acne scars on my face. Vitamin C has lightening/brightening properties and using it on your whole face may lighten it. I let it sit for 5 minutes minimum to as long as I can before I need to sleep so it absorbs into my skin. I dab off any excess after with a paper towel.
   
7. After that, I use The Ordinary’s Hyaluronic Acid. You can look up the full benefits but it can help with skin elasticity and smoothing wrinkles/scars from pimple popping. You can get this MUCH cheaper at Sephora - they’re $7 I believe and this company has a bunch of other serums I want to try. On Sundays and Wednesday’s, I use a Mask Sheet. Asian markets sell them but they usually sell them individual and I pay for the big back of 48 here. Helps restore tons of moisture in face and provide different benefits based on the mask you choose but most are the same. They also smell nice!
   
8. One I use the mask and rub it in, I use a mixture of three oils: Kukui, Rosehip, TeaTree Oil. All of them can be found on amazon and have different benefits that tie together. I mix them into a tiny container and do very small dabs into my skin and rub it in. Kukui oil also works as a massage oil as it’s very light and great natural sunscreen (though if you plan to go to the beach wearing regular sunscreen and using the Kukui to seal it in is best).
   
9. Finally, I finish with my Elizabeth Arden Moisture Cream. $55 seems expensive but a little goes a LONG way, I use about enough to cover the whole tip of my finger, a light dip like if you want to taste something for example. You don’t need a lot because at this point your face is already moisturized enough that it should just glide on.
   
10. To finish, since I have hyperpigmentation and get dark spots at the slightest raise on my skin, I use Ambi Dark Spot Corrector. Can be found at target I think, my mom usually buys it. Put light amounts on affected areas and sleep.
    
    *Note: you may need to slowly introduce these products. Most of them are geared toward moisturizing and preventing aging as well. If you do anything, I’m at least recommend exfoliating often, changing pillow cases and properly moisturizing your skin using the sheet masks as well as possibly vitamin E serums. I plan on getting some but have no money rn, but Belei sent me free samples and I loved it. I think The Ordinary also carries some. Also, properly washing your face will probably help as well, and I’d recommend getting at least a spin brush. Over rubbing your face can be harmful to the skin and skin brushes usually clean well enough without harm.
    
    I hope this helps! This is my whole routine but if anything jumps out feel free to not look at everything! I’m of course not a dermatologist but this helped me and I now only get pimples usually if I eat excess of the previously mentioned triggers :) my skin is now brighter and dark spots clear up in about 2-3 months but are usually lighter after about two weeks.

Shiseido Perfect Whip. A tube goes a long way and cleans super thoroughly.

DHC Deep Cleansing Oil that I use for makeup removal, which rinses right off with water - all the goodness of oil cleansing with none of the mess!

Shiseido Perfect Whip for my foaming cleanser which I use with my Clarisonic Mia 2 to get a good deep cleanse and exfoliation. The Shiseido Perfect Whip really is the bees knees, I would highly recommend that to almost anyone!

Not affiliated with the amazon link, but Shisheido Perfect Whip.

I have dry skin and it is strong enough to get sunscreen off while at the same time not tearing up my skin. I buy it in bulk.

You only have to use a pea sized amount so a tube lasts me four or five months with twice daily use. It is just the right mix of gentle/gets my face clean.

Hmn, that one doesn't seem to have very good reviews on amazon.

What about this popular "Perfect Whip" one? Talking about this here:

https://www.amazon.com/Shiseido-Fitit-Perfect-Cleansing-4-2oz/dp/B001CC1VV2/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1511633347&sr=8-1&keywords=face%2Bwhip&th=1

That seems to be super popular... is it any good? Or just "meh" and simply got popular because of luck?
